William Marion Jakdin President of the College IT is to be doubted if any institution of higher learning in this country is more fortunate in the matter of presidents than the Kansas State Agricultural College. Under the guidance of President Jardine this institution has ex- panded rapidly, its prestige has spread and its standarrls have risen. He has made K. S. A. C. one of the foremost schools of its kind in the United States; he has displayed a profound faith in and regard for the younger generation; he has worked for them and with them, and in so doing he has performed a task of inestimable value to his state and to his nation. Doctor Jardine ' s sound thinking and vigorous idealism have made him an outstanding figure in affairs of national scope. The Kansas State Agricultural College can rejoice that it has as its president Dr. W. M. Jardine, a loyal Aggie and an inspiring leader.

Well, George, this is the last picture. As Brownie says, lei ' s make it the best. Sunshine, to me, means everything that ' s beautiful in life, and the way it struggles through the shadow masses of the great tree there and dots the road in light and shade is all of life itself. Don ' t von think I ' d make a foet, George? NO!

Division ot General Science The Division of General Science includes some of the most impor- tant fields of instruction in the College, and more than one-half of the total teaching is done by the facult - of that Division, as well as much research work in scientific lines. These fields of instruction may be conveniently grouped as follows: First: Mathematics and the sciences, physics, chemistry, bot- any, zoology, entomology, and bacteriology. Mathematics pro- vides the procedure by which all phenomena and all relations, physi- cal, mental, and social, may be studied in a quantitative way; the sciences arm the student with knowledge that promotes his de- fense in the struggle with Nature, and equips him for co-operation with her. The sciences furnish the basis of scientific facts essential for much of the tech- nical work given in other Divisions. Second: F nglish, modern languages, industrial journalism and printing, public speaking, and music, channels through which oral and written thoughts are conveyed, the emotions aroused, and action initiated.
